Github Advanced Security
GitHub Advanced Security is a comprehensive developer-first application security platform that integrates static application security testing (SAST) with CodeQL, secret scanning with push protection, software composition analysis (SCA) with Dependabot, dependency review, and AI-powered Copilot Autofix to identify and remediate vulnerabilities, exposed credentials, and insecure dependencies throughout the software development lifecycle. The platform operates natively within GitHub workflows to provide automated security scanning, compliance monitoring, security campaigns for backlog remediation, and centralized security insights across repositories, enabling development teams to build secure code by default while freeing security teams to focus on strategic initiatives.
